ICYMI: Following a disturbing complaint against a trustee earlier this year, Frisco ISD finds itself under several federal investigations.
Frisco Independent School District is now the subject of several open federal civil rights investigations over allegations of discrimination.The complaints were made to the U.S. Department of Education's in 2022 and this year. Two of the sex discrimination complaints allege sexual harassment, and another alleges sexual violence. There are also allegations that benefits were denied on the basis of disability, sex and race.
"Frisco ISD currently has seven open OCR investigations," a spokesperson for the district said."The OCR website lists an investigation under each statute that applies to the allegation. As a result, two of the investigations are listed three times each and two are listed two times each. However, there are only seven open investigations."
Justin Culpepper of Pride Frisco said that Frisco may be gaining new residents at a rapid rate, but the people moving here are starting to realize it’s not very welcoming to everyone.
